Urge to fight: one’s content to be beaten eventually? (3-3)
I believe the answer is:
egg-box
'one's content to be beaten eventually?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'urge to fight' is the wordplay.
'urge' becomes 'egg' (as in egging someone on).
'to fight' becomes 'box' (boxing is a kind of fighting).
'egg'+'box'='EGG-BOX'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
